She has made it possible for many of her fellow students to enjoy those subjects for which they have little interest. Nadine ' s goal in life is to lead an exciting and contented existence. Therefore do not be shocked if you find her in a picture of Bowie groupies. Farewell Nadine and good luck in your future education, business career, and Ufe.

Paul MacNeil All the world ' s a stage; so while you ' re on it live life to the fullest anonymous Paul MacNeil has been one of the notable members of our class since grade six when his sentence at H.G.S began. Since then he has been a member of the Student Council and a valuable member of the volleyball, soccer and basketball teams. Paul is also an accomplished swimmer and has been the captain of Acadia for the past two years. Paul ' s witty comments are normally appreciated most by himself, and could only be smothered by reminding Paul that he declared 1984: the year of the marriage . Paul ' s grade twelve spirit normally found him either slaving over an essay in the library or participating in the class ' favourite pastime: partying. Through all his fast paced hfe, Paul has. remained a warm hearted guy that always had an open ear for his friends. We leave Paul in his car cruising HaHfax with a blonde beauty at his elbow. He is bound to be successful and plans to enjoy hfe. Roger Mills There are many ways of life, there are many fine beauties. But there is only one freedom. Roger Mills Roger likes people but he is prepared to be critical of them. This easy going guy shows his displeasure with his peers in his own frank manner. Basketball, poetry and soccer are his favourite hobbies. Moreover Roger would not be able to survive without his regular deep conversation with whomever he manages to entice into a debate. Roger could be said to be quite a soccer buff if he were on the right team. He is a strong personality in our class and one that would be impossible to replace. Anthony Novae The opera ain ' t over ' till the fat lady sings! anonymous For twelve long, long years, Anthony has been a ray of hope that, yes we too, can be as ritzy and fashion conscious as he is. His clothing and hairstyles have left a lasting impression on the rest of us. As well as being among the fashion elite Anthony has participated in practically every sport in our school, and is renowned for his skill, prowess, and incredibly muscular legs. He has attained a high athletic standing. When we remember Anthony, however, it will be his fanatic love for skiing. We recall how on many a boring winter day, members of Upper Six sat glued to their chairs listening to Anthony reminisce about heart stopping times when he challenged many a slope in the Swiss Alps. We will always remember Anthony as an important part of our class.
